Institution Development

IDEAS thematic area

Institution Development

Building a stronger, more self-reliant FINASP, so that our work with communities can last.

Institution Development, Engagement and Sustainability (IDEAS) is how we strengthen FINASP itself. We are growing our own enterprises, nurturing new ideas and businesses, and building a home for our work, so that what we earn goes back into development.

Innovations and Business Incubation Centre

Our three priorities

Three investments that make FINASP stronger and its development work more lasting.

πŸ’Ό
Priority I

Social enterprise

We are strengthening the business arm of FINASP and investing in income-generating ventures. The profits are reinvested in our development work.

πŸ’‘
Priority II

Innovations and Business Incubation Centre (IBIC)

We are strengthening the IBIC as a place where new ideas and young businesses can be nurtured and grow.

🏒
Priority III

FINASP office construction

We are constructing our own office: a permanent home for our work and a lasting asset for the organisation.

Why it matters

πŸ’°

Earn

Our social enterprises and the IBIC generate income.

β†’
πŸ”

Reinvest

Profits go back into development work, not out of it.

β†’
🌍

Sustain

A stronger FINASP can keep serving communities for years to come.
